Part 14


          "Alright. It's in. Now we have to wait for the results." You tell Kid and Sunny as you and Law enter the apartment. "Oh, hey Merry! Welcome back." You greet the girl when she looks over with Sunny.

"Hi!" She smiles and waves.

"I made nachos." Kid tells you with a point.

"I do like cheesy, you want some Law?" You hum.

"Sorry, I cant, the Super Brawl is tonight, my father will need help at the hospital." He reminds you.

"Oh yeah! Red's gonna kick everyone's ass tonight!" You cheer and Sunny howls in agreement.

"No! Rubberman will win!" Merry objects.

"Sorry to tell you shrimps, but Surgeon's going to eliminate everyone." Law smirks.

"Who are you cheering for Kid?" Sunny asks.

"... Probably best if I cheer for the one my roommates are." Kid shrugs.

"RedDemon!!" You and Sunny cheer together.

"You're so going to owe me after tonight Law." You smirk.

"We'll see about that." He chuckles before going out, pausing and leaving the door open so Franky can peer in.

"I brought it." The blue haired male rumbles holding up a large box.

"Thanks, can you install it on the rooftop and turn it on, I'll tell the building manager." You say taking out your phone and texting the manager.

"What's in the box?" Sunny asks you.

"A forcefield generator for our building." You hum thoughtfully.

"You gave him blueprints?" Kid guesses.

"Of course, he might need one too." You hum as he gets up.

"True. I'll be back late so don't wait up." He says before going out. You pause in confusion before rushing out after him.

"W-Whoa whoa. Where are you going?" You ask, catching his arm. He blinks and raises an eyebrow at you. "You know how dangerous it gets during their little fights. This is an all out brawl Kid. Its not safe to go out." You point out.

"Don't worry about me. I'm going to Seventh City to talk to a contractor about the new shop. I'll be fine." He replies.

"Cant you reschedule or something? I don't want you to-" He puts a hand over your mouth.

"What's this? Did you fall for me or something?" He teases. "I promise I'll be back later so just have fun watching the brawl with Sunny and Merry." He says before dropping his hand. You frown and grip his collar, pulling his face closer.

"You better call, or at least answer if I call Kid." You warn him. He chuckles lightly at that smiling at you.

"Yes mom." He hums.

"I will kick your ass." You frown. He smiles and pulls your head into his chest, resting his chin on top of your head.

"I'll call you okay? So stop worrying about me. It's weird." He huffs.

"Whatever you say Cuddles." You smirk pulling back to watch his face turn red.

"Now you're just asking for a fight." He grumbles pushing your face back. "See you later."

"See ya." You giggle after him with a smile. He tosses a smile back at you before disappearing into the elevator. You shake your head and go back into the apartment to find Sunny and Merry looking at you with big eyes and smiles. "... What?" You mutter.

"Did you kiss?" Merry whispers, sparkling slightly. You blink and blush heavily.

"Wh-What? No..." You tell her awkwardly.

"Aww..." The two sigh crestfallen.

"What's up with you two?" You scoff.

"___, why don't you like Kid?" Merry asks.

"E-Eh!?" You huff, taking a step back. "Th-That's..."

"Is it because you still like RedDemon?" Sunny pipes in. You gap at him, not sure how to handle the situation.

"I need to call someone." You tell them, maneuvering into your room and calling Law after closing the door.

"Yes best friend?" He answers.

"How do I answer children questions!?"

"Involving?"

"Relationships!"

"... Please tell me it's not time for the talk..."

"Oh god no!... They're asking about Kid and me... And probably RedDemon..." You admit rubbing your cheek.

"... Huh... Hm... Yeah, I would've ran too... Unless you like Kid?"

"... Do I?"

"I... I'm not sure honestly, but I get the feeling you're still into RedDemon..." He hums. "Probably be easier to change the subject. I gotta go, good luck."

"Thanks." You peer back out at the two. "Alright! Time to get ready for the Brawl! We need snacks!" You inform the pair.

"Brownies!!"

The brawl starts an hour later, you and the kids sit on the couch, watching the television. "Look! There goes Rubberman!" Merry chimes with a point as the super and his friends appear on one of the buildings being screened. Across from them, The Surgeon lands with Monk, and the Father.

"Where is he?" Sunny mutters with a small frown as numerous other supers show up. You were starting to frown too until a column of fire shoots up in the center, dispersing to reveal RedDemon's new suit. His mechanical arm transforms into a cannon, firing a plasma shot at Big Mom, signaling the start of the brawl.

You and Sunny grin, cheering together. "That was such a badass entrance!" You gush. Sunny and Merry giggle, eyes glued to the screen as chaos breaks out.

He dodges Rubberman's fist, aiming his flamethrower at The Monk, trying to burn the large super's wings. RedDemon smirks to himself, falling out of the way as green knight moves to attack him. Turning his gaze on Surgeon, he bursts at the other, metal arm meeting Surgeon's nodachi.

"Should you really be fighting with that arm?" Surgeon rumbles, gold eyes glaring at him dangerously.

"She made it specifically for fighting. I wont lose with it." RedDemon hums as the palm of his metal hand opens and starts to glow. Surgeon's eyes widen and he drops out of the blast area, letting RedDemon take out The Father with the blast. Before Surgeon can move to take out the other, Pink Flamingo collides into him, knocking him into a building.

RedDemon dodges Big Mom's attack, firing his cannon at her again. He loved his new arm to the very last piece, smiling to himself proudly. The weapons were great, it was impact resistant, and it's camouflaging capabilities were amazing. "Oh right... I need to call her..." He mutters before muting his mask.

You were in the middle of cheering when your phone goes off. "It's Kid, turn down the volume." You tell Sunny before answering. "Wow, you did call."

"I didn't want you hitting me for not calling.... Who's winning?" He hums.

"RedDemon is kicking ass of course. You should've seen his entrance, just... Wow..." You gush quietly. "He looked so hot..." You mutter. There's a pause before he starts laughing, making you blush. "Sh-Shut up, I didn't say that..."

"Wow... Fangirling much?" He teases.

"Super Fangirling is the correct term." You correct watching RedDemon send Super Rex through a building. "... I really want that super..."

"In which way?" He snickers.

"All of them..." You whisper, not really paying attention to the conversation. You were busy admiring RedDemon and tuning out the cheering of Sunny and Merry.

"Heh... Heh... I have to go now, have fun." He chuckles.

"Kay, miss you, be safe." You hum before you both hang up.

Another hour or so, the brawl ends over an ocean, and RedDemon was the victor. Everyone else were in complete dismay, but you and Sunny were cheering victoriously.

"That's my super!!" You roar. Sunny and Merry giggle at you, making you blink back. "Alright you two! Time for bed! Retire to the blanket fort!" You tell them turning off the t.v.

"Goodnight!" They chime before going into their fort and settling in with big yawns. You smile a bit, retiring to your room and closing the door as you check your phone.

"Hey little maid, report to work tomorrow," You smirk to yourself as you send Law the text. You were so relieved Red had won. Even if he never returned, you were happy he was doing well. Rolling onto your bed, you contemplate calling Kid until a ripple outside catches your eye, and you look over at RedDemon as he knocks on the forcefield. "Oh right!" You gasp getting up and swiftly going out and up to the roof, turning off the machine.

"That's new... Is that your project?" He rumbles as he lands nearby.

"Kinda, just a bigger version than the one I sent out today... We were watching you, you were amazing tonight Red." You smile at him, going to him. "I'm glad you aren't too hurt."

"I have you to thank for that ___... You made me stronger." He breathes before moving his piece and leaning forward, placing a kiss on your lips. You were surprised he did it on his own, but happy none the less as you cup part of his cheek and kiss him back. He smiles against your lips pulling you into himself, holding you tightly. He breaks the kiss to nuzzle your neck affectionately. You smile, touching the back of his helmet. "I cant stay out here long, Sunny is having a sleepover," You murmur. He nods and pulls back, tipping up your chin with a smile that seemed so familiar to you. Stealing another kiss, he backs up and moves the mouthpiece back.

"I'll see you later then... Goodnight ___," He rumbles before flying off. You kinda wish he would've stayed, but shake your head and head downstairs to the apartment again. You were a bit dazed as you check on the kids in their blanket fort. They snore softly, completely out. Your soft smile grows, everything felt so right.

"Love ya kiddos..." You breathe straightening up and looking back as someone enters the apartment. Kid gives a slight smile, coming over and peering in the fort too.

"Have fun?" He murmurs glancing at you.

"Yeah we did. I wish you could've joined us." You sigh softly. "Wanna drink? I feel like having a mini celebration." You smile.

"Sounds good, I can actually mix drinks well." He admits quietly.

"Ooo~ Party." You snicker, making him chuckle as you both go into the kitchen. "How did it go with the contractor.?"

"Not good actually. By the looks of it, they might just build a different kind of building instead of the shop." He sighs. You frown slightly, getting the liquor out.

"You're kidding... What are you going to do?" You ask as he scratches the back of his head.

"I don't know... Maybe try to buy a new shop... I know there's two for sell, one's near South City, and the other is near the school, but that one is really nice and expensive." He mutters, pouring you both a glass. You frown, putting a hand on his and making him pause.

"I'll help you out Kid. Don't stress, we'll figure it out." You tell him softly. He meets your gaze and smiles a bit.

"Alright. Then I have nothing to worry about, we're a tag team of awesomeness according to Sunny." He chuckles. You giggle and smile back at him.

"Right. We'll kick this thing's ass."
